STERN SONGS FOR ALTHOUSE
Irving Berlin, Inc., Meeting With Success in
Exploitation of New Numbers
Swiss Composer and Musical Instructor Wins
Coolidge Prize for Piano Sonata
Well-known Tenor Featuring Several Numbers
From That Concern's High Art Catalog
Irving Berlin, Inc., are meeting with much
success in having their numbers featured by a
representative list of vaudeville and musical
comedy headliners. "I've Got My Captain
Working for Me Now" is being used by Clark
& Bergman, as well as by the inimitable Henry
Lewis. Their ballad, "The Hand That Rocked
My Cradle Rules My Heart," is being sung
successfully by King & Harvey. Joseph Santley
and Ivy Sawyer and the Duncan Sisters feature
"Nobody Knows and Nobody Seems to Care."
In the instrumental field they have "Mandy,"
a fox-trot; "A Pretty Girl Is Like a Melody,"
a fox-trot; "Harem Life," a fox-trot, and "My
Tambourine Girl," a one-step. All these latter
numbers are also sung successfully in this sea-
son's "Ziegfeld Follies" and all of them are the
product of the pen of Irving Berlin.
SINGING McKINLEY CO. SONGS
Miss Leah Leaska, a prominent singer, who
has been doing much work for the War Camp
Community Bureau, has been singing with suc-
cess several vocal selections from the McKinley
Music Co.'s catalog. These include "Weeping
Willow Lane" and "White Heather," as well as
their popular number, "Sweet Hawaiian Moon-
light."
PITTSFIELD,
MASS.,
September
8. — Ernest
Block, of New York, a Swiss composer and
musical instructor, won the $1,000 prize offered
by Mrs. Frederick Coolidge, of New York and
Philadelphia, for the best piano and violin
sonata. Seventy-five manuscripts were submit-
ted. The composition adjudged second in rank
was a work by Miss Rebecca Clarke, an Eng-
lish composer, now a guest of Miss Gertrude
Watson, in Pittsfield.
The prize-winning composition will be played
by Harold Bauer and Louis Bailly at Mrs.
Coolidge's second annual music festival on
South Mountain, in Pittsfield, in September.
USING CHAPPELL NUMBER
"Love's Garden of Roses," one of the most
successful songs in the catalog of Chappell &
Co., Ltd., is being programmed by John Mc-
Cormack. The words are by Ruth Rutherford
and the music is by Haydn Wood.
Paul Althouse, leading tenor of the Metro-
politan Opera Co., has added to his repertoire
the recent issue from the house of Jos. W.
Stern & Co., entitled "Since First You Smiled
on Me."
Mr. Althouse is already very enthusiastic over
this song and in an interview with Kdw. A.
Weinstein, manager of Jos. W. Stern & Co.'s
fine arts department, he said, among other
things, that "Since First You Smiled on Me"
should prove a veritable boon for artists who
wish a genuine program leader. Other fine art
songs from the house of Stern to be used by
Mr. Althouse during his concert season are: "If
You Were the Op'ning Rose," "But That Was
Yesterday," "One Little Hour" and "Little
Shawl of Blue."
